Snags four passes in loss

Logan caught all four of his targets for 18 yards and lost three yards on his only carry during Sunday's 40-14 loss to Atlanta.

Analysis: The five touches Sunday were more than Logan had recorded all season combined. The bulk of those came in the last two drives of the game with Mike Glennon connecting with him on three passes after Josh Rosen was benched for ineffectiveness. Rosen is expected to be back under center Sunday against the Rams, but don't expect wildly different results. Los Angeles may be surrendering a whopping 5.0 yards per opponent carry, but Logan seems unlikely, based on recent history, to capitalize.

Gets first career carry

Logan ran for five yards on a single carry during Sunday's 20-17 win over the Packers.

Analysis: Aside from being his first career carry, Sunday's rush along with Week 12's 5-yard reception marked the first time that Logan earned touches in back-to-back games. It's a small step for the second-year back, especially as he operates behind David Johnson and rookie Chase Edmonds. Given these baby steps, Logan is unlikely to be a big factor Sunday, even against a mediocre Detroit run defense.

Notches one catch in loss

Logan caught his only target for a 5-yard gain during Sunday's 45-10 loss to the Chargers.

Analysis: The catch was just the third touch Logan has had in his five games active this season, all of them catches. The Cardinals offense has been weak all season and has not showed much improvement under new offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich. That leaves little for down-roster players like Logan. The Cardinals take on a relatively weak Green Bay run defense on Sunday, but Logan has yet to record a carry this season -- making it likely that, whatever touches he might receive, will likely come…read more

First offensive touches Sunday

Logan caught both of his targets for 14 yards and returned three kickoffs for 89 yards during Sunday's 26-14 defeat at Kansas City.

Analysis: Heading into Week 10, Logan had been active just two times this season, playing almost exclusively on special teams. The 2017 fifth-rounder took full advantage of his three (of 73) offensive snaps Sunday, accounting for more yards from scrimmage on his first career touches on offense than primary backup running back Chase Edmonds, who took two carries for seven yards on 17 such snaps. Unfortunately for the duo, neither player is a viable option due to the presence of David Johnson.

Returns three kickoffs Sunday

Logan returned three kickoffs for 49 yards during Sunday's 43-0 loss to the Rams.

Analysis: On the field for all five Rams kickoffs, Logan otherwise didn't receive any reps, either on offense or other special-teams units. With David Johnson and Chase Edmonds taking on all the snaps at running back, Logan will be contained to his current role for the foreseeable future. However, Logan would be the next man up in the event of an injury.

Full participant Wednesday

Logan (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Analysis: Logan missed Arizona's Week 1 contest against the Redskins due to the ankle issue, but he appears to be in good shape well ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Rams. He should slot in on the kickoff return and likely be the top backup punt returner behind Christian Kirk. He could also see some carries out of the backfield if David Johnson (back) is unable to play.

Inactive Sunday

Logan (ankle) is listed as inactive Sunday against the Redskins.

Analysis: A limited practice participant this week, Logan's ankle must not be healthy enough to help in his primary job as the Cardinals' kick returner. Look for J.J. Nelson to hold down the fort in that realm while David Johnson and Chase Edmonds handle all backfield duties.

Questionable for Sunday

Logan (ankle) was limited during Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Redskins, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Analysis: Logan missed the 2017 season with a wrist injury, and he may have to keep waiting for his NFL debut. When he finally gets into game action, he's expected to be the Cardinals' kick returner and will occasionally rotate in behind starter David Johnson and Chase Edmonds.

Limited at practice

Logan (ankle) was limited in practice Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Analysis: After missing his entire rookie season due to a dislocated wrist, Logan was pushed down the depth chart in late April with the selection of fellow running back Chase Edmonds in the fourth round of the NFL Draft. While his status as the No. 3 was solidified when D.J. Foster tore his ACL in preseason Week 3, Logan may find it difficult to see he field beyond kickoff returns. In the end, Logan could be in consideration for a DNP on Sunday versus the Redskins if his ankle remains bothersome.

Totals 95 scrimmage yards Sunday

Logan notched six carries for 86 yards and one touchdown and hauled in both targets for nine yards during Sunday's preseason win at Dallas.

Analysis: Logan did most of his damage on a 59-yard TD run on the Cardinals' first drive of the second half, but notably he exited the game as the No. 3 running back on the depth chart behind David Johnson and rookie Chase Edmonds. The elevation was made possible by D.J. Foster's knee injury, which includes ACL and MCL tears. With Foster out for the season, Logan enters the year as Arizona's regular kick returner and waits in the wings in the event something impacts the runners in front of him.

Logan (wrist) is a full participant in the offseason program, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Analysis: A fifth-round pick last year, Logan was expected to serve as a kick and punt returner as a rookie. During the Cards' preseason opener in the Hall of Fame Game, he displayed dynamic skills in those realms, ripping off two kickoff returns for 71 yards before dislocating his wrist on a late-game carry. He proceeded to spend the entire campaign on injured reserve, and while he relayed he can still gain some more "mobility" in the wrist, he's otherwise good to go. "As far as strength, it's fine,"…read more

Logan didn't make an appearance during his rookie season due to a dislocated wrist.

Analysis: A 2017 fifth-round selection, Logan was never able to recover sufficiently after injuring himself in the Hall of Fame Game. In a bit of foreshadowing, his injury was actually matched by workhorse back David Johnson in the season opener, and neither player took the field again in 2017. Once he's back to full health, Logan will be one of the top options for kickoff returns next season, but Kerwynn Williams (assuming he's retained) and D.J. Foster could also vie for the role.

Head coach Bruce Arians was noncommittal Monday about Logan's ability to return this season, Kyle Odegard of the Cardinals' official site reports. Speaking about Logan's wrist, Arians said, "It's just not loosening up."

Analysis: Tabbed in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL Draft, a healthy Logan would have provided an explosive returner and been among David Johnson's (wrist) replacements in the backfield. However, Logan's rookie season went awry when he dislocated his wrist in the Hall of Fame Game. The Cardinals were hopeful for a midseason return, but his wrist continues to experience tightness and push off an appearance at practice.

Logan (wrist) is a candidate to return from injured reserve this season, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Analysis: According to head coach Bruce Arians, Logan will attempt to field punts with a brace on his wrist next week to get a sense of "where he's at," health-wise. Once he takes part in practice, a three-week window will open in which the Cardinals can activate Logan to the 53-man roster. If the team designates him as one of their two players to return from IR, they'll give up the chance to activate both David Johnson and Carson Palmer before season's end. Nonetheless, an available Logan would help out…read more
